Twitter Tool Tuesday – 140it

If you’re struggling to get a tweet down to 140 characters, 140it can help. It works by reducing words, removing extra spaces, shrinking URL’s etc.

When shortening company names it exchanges them with their symbol from StockTwits – a website that aggregates tweets about publicly traded companies.

Despite making tweets look like they’ve been written in teenage text-speak, 140it is a really handy tool for finding acceptable abbreviation ideas when you need to cram lots into a tweet.
